Julia-I see that you've totally embraced censorship. Is that why you don't have much disagreement on…Read More your blog about your high HOA fees? Thanks for reconfirming my fears that the Patch has turned into a tool of those who pay for propaganda at the expense of truth. The power is not with the voter, but with those who count the votes, and opinions are votes.

What's with the ads blocking out the posts? I know you gotta pay the bills, but don't throw out the…Read More baby with the bath water.

Making us start over is the plan to wear us down. Free press is paid for by advertisers, and…Read More pressure is put out to stifle stories. That's what the tobacco industry did to 60 Minutes, and the Isreli government did to the Goldberg Report. The United Nations couldn't put out the story of mass genocide of the Palestinian people, and we'll be kicked off the blog soon because we don't advertise.

I thought I was being overly suspicious but the new site eliminated months of research and…Read More commentary and has replaced it with irrelevant banter and Ads.
It won't even let you edit thoughts into smaller blocks or comment directly to another post. It is the ultimate dumbing down of Patch.
If you have been following the Plan Bay Area debate here is a link to the response from the Supervisor's:

We got sold down the river by the developers. Under the guise of a new improved format, they just…Read More erased our history. Now we have to start defending our town all over again, while they are already in gear. Some of the opponants of AH can't get on anymore. Brent would not have allowed this to happen. Maybe that's why he left so suddenly, and unexpectedly.

I am not sure which group you are referring to. I belong to Novato Community Alliance and…Read More Novato Homeowners Association. Both are grassroots groups working with local government to ask much needed questions regarding Plan Bay Area.
Your comments are reminiscent of a previous poster named Bud Lite who was engaged in heated exchanges. Since his name continued to evolve it was only his message that made him recognizable.
No one can give you the world but NCA and NHA are both resources that can provide information and discussion of important local issues.

Hello,
It took our groups letters to get the change as we do not want to read someones garbage…Read More that takes twenty posts to say one thing . I have never had a heated exchange with you but I can tell you I was sick of reading your garbage like a lot of other people were. You and your group promised the world, told it the only way you wanted the outcome to be and got caught by the real people of Novato

I like the fact we have a voice; it will improve. Go Novato, and the active citizens

We had a story yesterday on Novato Patch with very lively discussion. Unfortunately it didn't…Read More migrate over with the new format. I'm hoping it will pop up soon.
